The last time the Demoness attacked the Changtian Sect, due to carelessness, she killed one person, leaving only six in the Embryonic Breathing realm. Now another person had died, making it five.
If this went on, it was hard to say whether the Changtian Sect could maintain its position as one of the Ten Major Sects.
The death of an expert in the Embryonic Breathing realm was a great loss to any ancient martial arts sect. Especially for the Changtian Sect, where two had died consecutively, the loss was even greater.
If he had not broken through to the acme of the Embryonic Breathing realm, it was reckoned that the Changtian Sect would not have a place in the next Ten Major Sects Selection.
"Sect Leader Uncle, the Demoness killed Sect Uncle Fu Qing."
The Qi Nucleation realm ancient martial art practitioner's eyes flashed with fear as he swallowed his saliva and said. The scene just now was too horrifying. It was almost a disaster. The Changtian Sect had lost more than a hundred people instantly.
He had a good friend in the Qi Nucleation realm. Because he was a little closer, he could not escape in time. Now, there was nothing left of him.
"It's not the Demoness. There's another person."
The old man in the white robe said with a serious face. Other than the Tai Yin Qi of the Demoness, there was also a strange aura on Fu Qing's corpse. That aura was very strange. He could not distinguish its attribute and did not know its origin.
But he was sure that the aura was definitely not inferior to the Demoness Gong. He had fought with the Demoness for so many years, so naturally, he knew the Demoness very well.
"There's another person?"
The old man in the Qi Nucleation realm was stunned. Previously, he only knew that the Demoness and Sect Uncle Fu Qing were fighting fiercely, but he did not realize that there was another person involved. Who was that person? When did he appear?
He did not doubt the words of the Sect Leader Uncle. With the ability of the Sect Leader Uncle, it was naturally impossible for him to lie.
The old man in the white robe did not speak. He silently took out an ancient bronze compass. Then, he took out a strand of hair from his sleeve and placed it on the bronze compass.
He lifted the compass like he was holding a sacred object. After muttering for a while, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Seal off this forest completely. Don't let a single bird out."
The old man in the white robe snorted coldly and ordered the surrounding Changtian Sect people. That witch was still in this forest. Since that was the case, it would be impossible for her to escape even if she grew wings. She would not be able to escape from his palm.
Hearing this, everyone received the order and left. They instructed their subordinates and disciples of various ranks to gather in the forest, completely sealing off the forest.
"Senior Brother, Junior Brother Fu Qing …"
A streak of light flashed in the distance, and it appeared in front of the white-robed elderly man in the span of a few breaths.
This person was dressed in a black robe and had an aged face. He was clearly not young, probably more than eighty years old.
He called the white-robed elder Senior Brother and Fu Qing Junior Brother. He was actually one of the few people with the highest seniority in Zhang Tian Sect.
Without a doubt, this person was also an ancient martial arts practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm, a strong practitioner who stood at the pinnacle of the ancient martial arts world.
"Dead." The white-robed old man looked into the depths of the forest with a rather ugly expression. A cold killing intent flashed in his eyes.
The black-robed old man looked at the mutilated corpse on the ground and sucked in a breath of cold air. How could that demoness be so powerful? That day, she killed her way into the mountain gate and killed Senior Brother Wang Yun in front of everyone. Now, she killed Junior Brother Fu Qing.
"The Psychic Compass told me that that Demoness Gong is still in this forest."
The white-robed old man squinted his eyes slightly and said, "That demoness killed Fu Qing, so she must have suffered very serious injuries. Moreover, there are two auras on Fu Qing's body, which means that there is another person secretly helping her. I was wondering why we couldn't find that Demoness Gong after so many days. It turns out that there is someone secretly helping her. "
"There is another person?"
The black-robed old man was shocked. Who was that person? Why did he have a problem with their Zhang Tian Sect?
"That's right. You also know that the demoness was injured at that time. Just based on her alone, it was impossible for her to kill Fu Qing. Moreover, it was a short period of five to six days. Under such circumstances, her injuries recovered so quickly. Under normal circumstances, how could that demoness recover so quickly? "
The white-robed old man snorted coldly, "The person secretly helping this demoness must be a medical expert."
Previously, when the disciples of the sect reported that the demoness could fight evenly with Fu Qing, he was secretly surprised. Under normal circumstances, that demoness could not recover so quickly.
Now it was finally proven that there was indeed someone secretly helping this demoness.
"A medical expert! Could it be that that person is from the Medicine Manor? The Medicine Manor often has people going in and out of the Changbai Mountain range. "
The black-robed old man's expression turned serious. If it was the Medicine Manor, then things would be troublesome.
The power of the Medicine Manor was above that of their Zhang Tian Sect. They were also one of the top ten sects of the ancient martial arts world. As the Medicine Manor was highly skilled in concocting medicine, they often sent their disciples deep into the mountains and ancient forests to search for medicinal herbs.
The Changbai Mountain range was rich in medicinal herbs. Naturally, it was an important target of the Medicine Manor. But the Changbai Mountain range was the territory of the Zhang Tian Sect. How could they allow the people of the Medicine Manor to constantly plunder the Changbai Mountain range for medicinal herbs? Because of the problem of medicinal herbs, the Zhang Tian Sect and the Medicine Manor had always maintained a minor dispute.
"We can't be sure now, but we can't rule out this possibility."
The white-robed old man said noncommittally, "When we capture the demoness and that person, we will know then."
In order to capture the demoness, he personally made a trip to the Huatian Palace and paid a huge price to borrow the Psychic Compass. As long as the demoness was within a hundred miles, he could use the Psychic Compass to lock onto the approximate location of the demoness. If he still let the demoness escape, then he, Chen Wuwang, would have lived his life in vain.
Mo Wen didn't know that the reason why the Zhang Tian Sect suddenly changed the direction of their search and focused on the area surrounding the valley was all because of an ancient bronze compass.
"Junior brother Xiao Chuo, later inform the other disciples in the sect to search this forest thoroughly and set up an inescapable net. This time, there can't be any accidents. "
A glint flashed in Chen Wuwang's eyes. He wanted to see what abilities the demoness had and whether she could escape from his grasp.
"Yes, Sect Leader senior brother."
The black-robed old man heard and bowed respectfully. The next moment, his figure flashed and he disappeared from his original spot.
Night fell. Unknowingly, half a day had passed. The forest was silent. The birds and beasts seemed to have hidden themselves and didn't dare to make any noise.
Tonight, there were hundreds and thousands of people shuttling through the forest. It was almost a carpet search. Even a mosquito couldn't escape their eyes. But after searching for half a day, they still couldn't find the demoness.
In the depths of the forest, there was a towering tree that seemed to have withered. The tree trunk was more than 50 degrees and there was a faint aura of dusk.
The tree was very big. It would take seven or eight people to wrap their arms around it. The tree crown covered a radius of a hundred meters, forming a large shadow.
Such a tree. It was not uncommon in the primeval forest, so it was rare for anyone to pay attention to it.
However, others didn't know that in the trunk of this tree, there was a very big tree hole. It was almost five or six square meters. But it was hard to find from the outside because the entrance of the tree hole was hidden in the tree crown.
Who would know that a tree trunk with a smooth surface would hide a big hole inside?
At this moment, in the tree hole, there were two people sitting quietly. They were none other than Mo Wen and Demoness Gong.
It was pitch black inside the tree hole. One couldn't even see their fingers in front of them. There was almost no light coming in.
But with Mo Wen and Demoness Gong's cultivation, it naturally wouldn't affect their vision.
"Why did you save me?"
The two of them were silent for a long time. Demoness Gong then slowly opened her mouth and asked. Her voice was as cold as usual and didn't have any emotions.
"You think I wanted to save you?" Mo Wen shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"Then why did you save me?" Demoness Gong thought that Mo Wen's answer was a little interesting. He obviously didn't want to save her, but why did he take such a big risk to save her?
"I am not a person who likes to hide behind a woman's back."
Mo Wen said plainly. Back then, Demoness Gong lured all the Changtian Sect people away alone. On the surface, she helped him, but in reality, she dragged him down with her.
If at that time, Demoness Gong and he both chose to escape quietly and not interfere or help each other, then he wouldn't have hesitated and would have left the Changbai Mountain range by himself. He was confident that he could avoid the Changtian Sect people's pursuit. After all, he wasn't the Changtian Sect's main target. They couldn't possibly send an Embryonic Breathing realm expert to kill him, right?
But at that time, Demoness Gong's actions made it impossible for him to leave even if he wanted to. In principle, he wouldn't choose this method to escape.
He was a little suspicious that this Demoness Gong was doing it on purpose. Acting like a great hero who sacrificed herself for justice, who cared about her sacrificing herself for justice?
"You're quite a man. But the result is that, originally, only one person died, now it became two deaths."
Demoness Gong laughed at herself mockingly.
With the current situation, it was basically impossible for them to escape the Changtian Sect's pursuit. The whole forest was probably completely sealed and she didn't have any cultivation at all. She had become a weak woman who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken.
When the Changtian Sect people found them, other than being slaughtered, there was almost no other possibility.
"Why do I feel that you are a little gloating?"
Mo Wen looked at Demoness Gong suspiciously. He was more and more suspicious that her previous actions were intentional.
"You can take it as a joke that you don't know when to back off," Demoness Gong said indifferently.
He shouldn't have interfered. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to die with her. What a pity for a person who practiced the Nine Yang Divine Technique. The Nine Yang Divine Technique that hadn't appeared for hundreds of years was probably lost again … Wait, Nine Yang Divine Technique …
Demoness Gong seemed to have thought of something. Her body stiffened slightly and subconsciously tensed up. The expression on her face kept changing.
He doesn't know when to back off?
Mo Wen rolled his eyes. He couldn't be bothered with this self-righteous woman in front of him. How would she understand the pride in a man's heart?
However, the current situation was really giving him a headache. If he wasn't careful, he might lose his life.
Not to mention that he was injured now, even if he wasn't injured, with his cultivation, he wouldn't be enough in front of the Changtian Sect. (To be continued.)
